candidate 1: i will kill you and your family

candidate 2: i will only kill half of your family, and maybe not you

candidate 3: I won't kill anybody, what the hell, that's so fucked up

Too many of you: Candidate 3 will just take votes from candidate 2, who we must elect to save democracy

US liberals talk about protecting democracy a lot but they seem to revile it in practice. the idea that a politician should ever be required to do anything to win votes, rather than simply represent an amorphously 'good' or 'bad' team, is treated as some sick heresy

since Democrats INSIST that Biden, Obama, Clinton, etc were hamstrung by GOP House & Senate, that the office of the President is simply powerless against the Parliamentarian, you'd think they'd have spent decades building Congressional power & electoral reform to combat Gerrymandering... and yet...

I love that Joe Biden restarted student loans, cancelled the payments for parents and is helping to fund Israel in killing tons of civilians and he’s also like “what do I have to do to get these people to like me?” And I have just the answer, have weird guys online yell at people with 1000 followers

an election between two people where the one who just armed and funded a genocide isn't the worst option just doesn't scream "democracy" to me.
